With young kids at home, this holiday should prove to be one of the most memorable seasons yet. And while I want my children to have memories that last a lifetime, I’m not wanting the same thing for my wallet. Thank goodness for Hasbro’s Elefun and Friends Collection of preschool games.

With games starting at $14.99, I plan on buying all four in the series.

* Hungry Hungry Hippos

* Elefun

* Gator Golf

* Girafalaff Limbo

What makes these giggle-inducing games so great is that they were designed for kids to play at all once. This means less complicated turn-taking and more action. And with room for eight busy hands at once, this is mom translation for less tantrums and more laughs.

I suppose you could say the same translation works for my bank account. And, with the money I’ve saved on games that all the kids can share (four for under $100.00) perhaps I’ll invest in a little special something for myself. After all, it is the season for giving. And doesn’t a tired mom like me deserve a little fun? Hasbro thinks so, and so do I!
